A 10-year-old girl burst into tears as passengers speculated that 'there could be a bomb onboard', after a man got on their Ryanair flight without a ticket. Barbara Watson was flying from Palma to Manchester on Thursday (August 4) after being on holiday in Majorca with her family.
The 64-year-old grandmother, from Stockport, told the Manchester Evening News that a man from the previous flight had managed to sneak onto their plane. She said: "The flight that came in, everyone got off board and one person stayed on the bridge and was hiding. When we all got onto the bridge, he mingled around with us and got back on board.
"The stewardesses told us that he was hiding on board of view of them waiting to see which seat was free. He sat in the seat, we got on the runway and the pilot stopped the flight and told us we'd have to go back to the gate as the numbers weren't adding up.
